Our objectives were to determine the status of computer security within VHA and evaluate department wide initiatives to improve Computer Security throughout VA. To determine the status of computer security within VHA, we (1) evaluated information system general controls at the VA Maryland Health Cafe System, the New Mexico VA Health Care System, and the VA North Texas Health Care System and (2) reviewed VA'a fiscal year 1999 financial statement audit report; VA'a 1999 FMFIA report; and VA OIG, internal VHA, and consultant reports on computer security at VHA facilities.
